Retired Admiral criticizes Defense Secretary's call to 'dominate the battle space' in American streets

Another liberal that closed his eyes when thugs were looting burning down American businesses throwing bricks at the police assaulting and murders committed!!!😝

Peaceful, correct but, the protests weren't all peaceful! Do you call looting, burning, and killing peaceful?

Do you realize that if you don’t read your phones, read newspapers, watch Liberal media tv like CNN & MSNBC the American life continues in peace with the exception of urban cities. Waiting for sports & election time: 77 million or more votes for Trump. We are ready!

Liberals are evil.

We need some people who aren't retired or former members to speak up

We need more people like him to speak up!

Hey Adm., these are not peaceful protest. Haven’t you been watching?

There are better ways than 'dominating' others. Real strength is found in 'listening' and 'accepting' the present moment with an open mind. Then a new experience of 'understanding' can develop. What makes a nation great is the joining of its beating hearts enddomination

Trump thinks he is the only founding Father of the USA. He is trying to be an authoritarian ruler of our country, and the Repblcns not acting as enablers, are just silent. They are all disgraceful cowards.

This isn’t peaceful protest idiot

JoeNBC Don’t make the mistake of thinking that we give one iota of a crap abt. retired Adm. whatever-his-name-name-is...

JoeNBC Do you remember what happen Sept 30, 1962 in Oxford, MS? The Mississippi National Guard was nationalized and Federal troops were sent to protect James Meredith. There was a 3 day battle with the troops. This was done to protect one person from a mob. The Ole Miss riot of ‘62.

EsperDoD remove our military from our streets!

KEYWORD: 'PEACEFUL' We have seen very little of that!! Especially after dark!! We HAVE seen beatings, lootings, arson, killings, terror, destruction of cities, defacing of monuments!!

JoeNBC This isn't a peaceful protest smash it.

The protests aren't 'peaceful' when the sun goes down. This narrative IS NOT WORKING fake news!

JoeNBC Trump admin disnt call in military to stop peaceful protest and you know it. Just more misinformation from msdnc.

❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️

If trump has any honor at all he must resign because “he is the problem” & has no moral authority to bring Peace in America today.

But not during the rptrump fascist administration. Peaceful protest treated to tear gas.

He isn't threatening the military on protester Do you know the difference in protesters and rioters Doesn't sound like it, I'll let you look it up

I suppose the most relevant part of his comment is “peaceful protest”.

JoeNBC The proposed use of the military wasn't to quell peaceful protests . I guess the looting, burning, attacking citizens and the use of explosives to open ATM'S falls under peaceful protesting. You guys are reckless.

Well he is proposing to use military against violent looters, NOT peaceful protesters. Can you not tell the difference?

Please watch these videos. There really is evil in this world And

The people who are calling this riot a peaceful protest, are the people who are inciting it, organizing it or paying for it.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh

JoeNBC Where are these loonies coming from? We have people roaming around like it’s the green light special at Kmart, looting and hurting inocente people. No one, no one is saying to use them on peaceful demonstrations. What a bunch of buffoons, God help us!!!

Another left wing whiner.
